Malaysian Property Partners offers you the opportunity to invest in Malaysian property and in one of the fastest growing economies in the world. We believe the following factors make Malaysian real estate an exceptional opportunity:

Malaysia's strong and stable economy: In the heart of an emerging Asia, GDP is expected to grow around 6% per annum in 2008.

The likely appreciation of the Ringgit: The Malaysian currency is the third most undervalued currency in the world and is 51% undervalued relative to the US Dollar, according to the latest "Big Mac Index" published by 'The Economist'. The Ringgit is widely expected to strengthen as government controls are gradually eased.

Recent abolishment of property gains tax in Malaysia property gains tax has been abolished from 1st of April 2007.

Liberal investment rules relative to other emerging markets make Malaysia property some of the most attractive in the world: Malaysia has amongst the most liberal property-ownership regulations for foreigners in Asia, with the process of liberalisation continuing.

High development margins: Development margins are strong due to the increasing real estate requirements of a rapidly growing and increasingly-wealthy population.

Growing competition between banks driving down lending margins: Decreasing lending margins have a favourable impact on Malaysian property valuations Increasing international interest in Malaysian real estate, particularly from the Middle East.

Malaysia is the only country in South-East Asia which offers both conventional and Islamic financing.

"Unlike some of its neighbours, it  is fairly easy to buy property in Malaysia. Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia and even Singapore all prevent foreigners from owning land, restricting them to buying apartments or to using leasehold arrangements..."

Alex Frew McMillan, International Herald Tribune, August 2006.

"Flush with cash...Middle Eastern investors have been snapping up properties in developed economies and now are looking increasingly to put money into real estate in Malaysia..The country's young population, large projects, stable government and economy, relatively transparent laws on property ownership and availability of Islamic financing are all factors."

Wall Street Journal, November 2006.

"There's going to be a big property boom there. Rates are going to come off. I like pretty much anything that's to do with property in Malaysia."

Mark Jolley, Deutsche Bank's Chief Asian Strategist, February 2007.

“In the 1990s, the free flow of money and goods turned Malaysia and Thailand into middle-class economies…The 1997-98 crisis showed the other edge of the sword…Almost a decade later, the boom times are coming back…”

International Herald Tribune, April 2006.

"...the twenty-first century will be the rise and rise of Asia. All across Asia, economies that are engaging with the global market are producing the kind of growth rates that most of Europe can only dream about. China’s booming export capacity and expanding market dominate the European imagination for now, but the Chinese experience is being followed across ASEAN. And nowhere more than here in Malaysia."

Peter Mandelson, European Trade Commissioner, May 2006.

"...a barrage of statistics shows economic power shifting away from the "developed" economies...towards emerging ones, especially in Asia" The Economist, September 2006"Perhaps more than any other Southeast Asian country, Malaysia has translated China's economic growth, often perceived as a threat in the region, into a huge economic opportunity...If Abdullah's administration can stay its current policy course, Malaysia property will be one of the biggest regional beneficiaries of China's rise"

Federico Bordonaro, senior analyst of Power and Interest News Report, June 2006.

"Growth in the labour force will be one of the defining characteristics of economic growth potential in Asia Pacific over the next decade..the rate of growth will be the fastest in..Malaysia"

ING Real Estate, September 2005.
